Fact or Fiction??


Several months ago I came across an article in a magazine at the doctor's office or some type of waiting room. It had a whole list of "myths" that your doctor will tell you. One of their so called myths was kids getting a "sugar high." According to them kids don't really bounce of the walls if you give them too much sugar.

I beg to differ...

Today Alex was fortunate enough to get a rootbeer. It's an extremely rare occurrence that I let my kids have pop (you say soda, I say pop).

Not long after he was bouncing up and down in front of the TV flapping his arms and making funny sounds.

A few minutes after that he came in my office and seemed to be trying to pull his own ears off. After repeatedly telling him to stop it to no avail I simply told him that if he couldn't stop pulling on his ears he'd never get pop again... He immediately stopped.

So you be the judge... Sugar high, fact or fiction???
